Holiday: with the spirit

Prologue

The old cracks of woods and a rotten smell was very much welcoming. I on the other hand didn't want to make a fuss about the whole situation . What happened to crazy boat cruise or traveling to a remote island. Yet. Gray decided we come to see his family for the holiday. Don't get me wrong tho, but I felt like what was the need to meet up after all. We have been married for 3 years now and I'm getting to know them for the first time.

Absurd right?.

On our marriage day non of his family members showed up. Apart from friends and well wishers,
I didn't get to meet even one. According to my husband they had gone for a business trip and sent their apologies but I personally felt they didn't like me, judging by the fact I was a Latino kid.

" absurd". I said. We made our way to the entrance of the building.

" babe please".

" your family stays in the woods?".

" it's just about an hour drive from town don't say that". A multiple billionaire family home located in the woods. Is it just crazy or that's how the wealthy people behave.

" My apologies". Every thing felt so weird. A family home in a woods. In the middle of no where. I wasn't even comfortable coming here but I had to for the seek of my husband. There was a light tin lady standing at the entrance of the house. Her gaze was on Gray and she had a really wide simile on. " it's being 3 years".

" my flesh maybe far apart from you but our souls are intertwined. It's so good to see you again mom".

Mom!!. She looked young to be his mom.

She is a pretty lady with silky straight blonde hair packed in a ponytail. After hugging her son her gazed landed at me and she gave me a very warm welcoming smile. " she is so beautiful". Before I could reply she embraced me into a warm hug. " I am so sorry for the wedding dear but I promise I would make amends. My husband was on bed rest due to a sudden illness, I? On the other hand had to take business into my own hands. Lizzy was on honeymoon with her husband and Derek was just being a prick". Not the words I expected but I belive we will get to know each better.

" the most important thing now is we are a family".

" yes., come with me, where are my manners. I will let the maid show you your room so you can rest. I guess the journey was a long one?".

" most certainly mother". A warm feeling and nice sweet smell of OUD was welcoming but it turned out to be my worst nightmare.

He was my bigger regret!!.
